Congrats! Did you all have your applications complete by the EA deadline? If so, it looks like the wait was around 5 weeks...

Also, what does the scheduling look like? Are the dates flexible?



Hey - Yes, had my application completed and submitted by EA deadline. On scheduling, I was assgined an alumni and was on me to reach out and schedule something between the both of us. They recommend getting it done as soon as possible.

My interviewer was an 2016 alumni and worked in the same industry. We went through the check the box type questions including resume, why columbia, why now, what other schools

All together, about 5 minutes on that then moved onto more industry conversation (outlook on market, m&a, wfh, etc). very conversational.

It was very informal. Went through Resume/CV. Mainly, asking why I need CBS with my resume and how I hope to enhance it. Lasted less than 30 minutes, especially because it is Fri night. With my goals, person interviewing confirmed CBS is the right choice.

Not yet. There was a misunderstanding. I was supposed to log my interview date when I had setup the interview. I didn't know. So, the interviewer feedback got delayed and it was filed yesterday. So, max 2 weeks from yesterday but hoping to hear earlier.
